Does anyone use project/dependency-specific MCPs? How do you use it? What sorts of questions do you ask? In what ways does it improve the Claude/Copilot/agentic experience? Where do you include it in your project/prompt-chain ? (Not a trap, genuinely curious)

A guidebook on blocking:
- Block people! It feels great. Even based on vibes.
- Blocklists are awesome.
- Get blocked? Ouch. That hurts. Either earn the unblock or accept that there'll be haters in life.
- Get blocklisted? Big ouch. Do the above but maybe internalize it a bit more.
Blessings.
